Vesna is a 5-star Anemo Sword character set to arrive in Genshin Impact Version 7.1 as part of the Snezhnaya cast. Her full set of ascension and talent materials can be gathered ahead of time, which lets you push her to level 90 and max out her talents the moment she becomes available.
Quick answer: To fully build Vesna, stock the Vayuda Turquoise gem set, Golden Fern (Snezhnaya local specialty), the Ethereal enemy drop set, the Glory talent book series, Vagabond’s Cracked Armor (a new 7.1 world boss drop), Profaned Sprout from the Dottore weekly boss, and 3 Crown of Insight. Everything except Vagabond’s Cracked Armor can be prefarmed now.
Vesna full material checklist (level 1 to 90, all talents)
Below is the complete count needed to take Vesna from level 1 to 90 and raise all of her talents to level 10. Note that these figures come from pre-release leaks and can shift before the official 7.1 launch.
| Material | Total needed |
|---|---|
| Vayuda Turquoise Sliver | 1 |
| Vayuda Turquoise Fragment | 9 |
| Vayuda Turquoise Chunk | 9 |
| Vayuda Turquoise Gemstone | 6 |
| Golden Fern | 168 |
| Vagabond’s Cracked Armor | 46 |
| Ethereal Glimmershard | 36 |
| Ethereal Crystal | 96 |
| Ethereal Crystalscale Stone | 129 |
| Teachings of Glory | 9 |
| Guide to Glory | 63 |
| Philosophies of Glory | 114 |
| Profaned Sprout | 18 |
| Crown of Insight | 3 |
The Vagabond’s Cracked Armor entry is the one item you cannot start collecting yet. It comes from a new overworld boss that only goes live with Version 7.1, so plan to gather all 46 after the update drops.
Vayuda Turquoise gem set: bosses that drop it
Vesna uses the standard Anemo gem line, from Sliver up to Gemstone. Lower rarities can be crafted up into higher ones, so any surplus from these fights still counts toward her totals. The following enemies drop the Vayuda Turquoise set.
- Anemo Hypostasis
- Setekh Wenut
- Maguu Kenki
- Solitary Suanni
- Icewind Suite
- Stormterror Dvalin
Golden Fern local specialty: Snezhnaya farm route
Golden Fern is a local specialty found in Snezhnaya. You need 168 total for her ascensions. The densest gathering spots are Flamefeather Valley and the area northwest of Rankova Zorya. Since local specialties regrow on a 48-hour timer, start rotating through these nodes early to avoid a shortfall later.
Ethereal enemy drops: Snowland Fae farming
The Ethereal set (Glimmershard, Crystal, and Crystalscale Stone) drops from Snowland Fae enemies. You will use these for both ascension and talent upgrades, which is why the combined counts run high. Defeat the following foes to build your stock.
- Channel Contact
- Volkodlak Brute
- Leomastiff Guard
- Voywolf Hunter
- Juvenile Tree Segment
Glory talent books: domain and schedule
Vesna’s talents draw from the Glory book series, from Teachings up to Philosophies. These come from the Relics of the Fallen Grace domain in Snezhnaya. The domain rotates its book type, and Glory books are available on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. On Sunday all book types are open, so it is the most flexible day to farm.
Profaned Sprout: Dottore weekly boss
Profaned Sprout is a talent-level material dropped by the Dottore weekly boss in Sumeru. You need 18 total to bring all talents to level 10. Because weekly bosses reset only once per week and cost Resin to claim rewards, this is one of the slower items to accumulate. Prioritize the talents you plan to use first if you are short.
Crown of Insight: where it comes from
Each talent that reaches level 10 needs one Crown of Insight, for a total of 3 to fully crown Vesna. Crowns are handed out through flagship events rather than farmed on demand, so save any you already hold for her final talent pushes.
What you can prefarm now versus wait for
Almost every material on Vesna’s list is available in the current version, so an early start pays off. Use this split to decide where to spend Resin before 7.1 goes live.
| Status | Materials |
|---|---|
| Prefarm now | Vayuda Turquoise set, Golden Fern, Ethereal set, Glory books, Profaned Sprout, Crown of Insight |
| Wait for 7.1 | Vagabond’s Cracked Armor (new overworld boss) |
Vesna is expected to headline Version 7.1 alongside the Hydro support Vodyanitsa. HoYoverse has not officially confirmed a release date for the update, so there is no fixed launch time to build a countdown around yet. Treat all counts and drop sources here as pre-release information that may be adjusted when Vesna officially debuts.
